Lets's calculate LCM of 683,802
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 547766
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/547766
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3204/683,2642/802 is 2/547766
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 683,802 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(683,802) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(683,802) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(683,802) = ( 683 × 802 ) / 1
LCM(683,802) = 547766 / 1
LCM(683,802) = 547766
